This. Every day is another nightmare chapter right now. And to think, we chose this option.

Also, probably. "We'll probably put those stories behind the paywall, because we want your money to fix what we helped break in the first place."

Generally, getting started requires some combination of a hard science degree, laboratory experience, relevant work history (e.g. photography, healthcare), and law enforcement experience.
For Bio/DNA, depending on the employer, specific courses in genetics and biology might also be required.

The reported clearance rate in the US isn't great, but it's above 50% (most are solved).

Based on my very limited search effort, it seems the various European countries have independent databases, but agreements to share? There must be a data exchange standard to make that work consistently across borders? Practically, how does one search databases in participating adjoining countries?

Interesting. Not the same thing, but I wonder if cross-border arrangements exist in places where border crossing is frequent. In the U.S., sending suspect profiles from border states to Mexican or Canadian labs for database searches (or vice-versa) could be interesting.

Similar on this side of the pond. It's common here that *no* officer profiles are databased.
I'd wager that if we suddenly fixed it, we'd have a big backlog of CODIS hits to clean up. Plenty of "unknown" DNA profiles from crime scenes would be attributed to officers, via scene contamination.

Michigan won, and then decided to plant the M flag at the OSU 50-yard line to celebrate. Apparently the Buckeyes didn't appreciate the gesture.

- **camera num**: the number assigned to the camera you want to access. The gateway assigns camera numbers as a zero-based array (so the first camera is '0', the third one is '2', etc.)
- **feed_num**: '0' for high-res, or '1', for lower-res.

TLDR, If you just want the format for the rtssp links, and not my whole story:
```
rtsp://[admin_user]@[IP of gateway]:80/ch[camera num]_[feed_num].264
```
- **admin_user**: the user for your camera gateway.
- **IP of gateway**: IP address of the gateway.
